Lawn Ranger's Grilled White Wings
Lawn Ranger has been posting these up lately. They reminded me of an appetizer called Crazy Wings at a place called George's Bar in Waco (if you know Pat Green, you've heard the song about the place) that I may have gone to from time to time back in my college days. 'Cept they fry theirs and LR does his on the grill. I thought I'd give them a shot. Here were the raws. I used chicken tenders instead of chicken breasts cuz I'm lazy and didn't feel like cutting them up. Totally forgot that you have to remove the tendon from a tenderloin and that made it just about as much work.
The chicken was wrapped around a hunk of Monterrey Jack and pickled jalapeno slices, then wrapped in bacon. Then it marinated in 1 cup of Chardonnay, 2/3 cup of oil and some salt and pepper for 1 hour or so. I set up the large with the AR at 400F.
A little while in, cheese oozing out.
Done
Plated up with some Brussel sprouts.
Even though I think mine could use some work, they came out really good. You could definitely taste a hint of wine from the marinade. Unfortunately, my horrible wrapping job allowed a lot of the cheese to melt out. I think next time, I'll wrap the bacon perpindicular to the way I rolled the chicken up to block those big holes I had. I'll probably also go with chicken breasts, cut them smaller and make them more bite sized. Think appetizers instead of meal sized. And I think I'll do them indirect. There was a lot of dripping down onto the coals resulting in a ton of smoke during this cook. Definitely gonna work on these and get them perfect, but LR is onto something here.

@NecessaryIndulq - they are a lot like your chicken bombs, 'ceptin they were in a marinade with fermented grapes first.
@henapple and @Jscott - you can blame @Lawn_Ranger for this one. He posted them up first.

Grif, you might try a goat cheese. Central Market sells a smoked Gouda goat cheese that would compliment all the ingredients. Since goat cheese has lower fat content it will soften with heat but not melt. Y'all have given me an idea for this weekends fest cook using pork loin instead of chickenLarge, small and mini now Egging in Rowlett Tx

Nice snack. Look around for some high temp cheese. Here is on I received as a gift a few years ago and it worked beautifully in a stuffed pork tenderloin.

Looks good @Griffin. I had something like this just the other night at a local bar, but they split fresh jalapenos the long way, stuffed with cheese, laid a strip of chicken on top of the cheese, covering it and then wrapped tightly with bacon. Basically ABT with a healthy strip of chicken covering the cheese instead of the pickled jalapeno strips. They deep fried them and then tossed them in wing sauce and they were glorious.
